Get your AI Endurance best training plan into TrainingPeaks. From there, you can execute your TrainingPeaks workouts in Zwift and many other apps. Connect your AI Endurance account once and any changes will automatically be synced with TrainingPeaks.
TrainingPeaks is the leading platform for endurance athletes to follow a structured training plan. As such, it has plenty of integrations with other training apps. You can now get your personalized and predictive AI Endurance training plan directly into TrainingPeaks with just a few clicks. You require a TrainingPeaks Premium account to access your AI Endurance workouts in TrainingPeaks.
First, go to your AI Endurance Apps page, go to 'Connected Apps' and click on TrainingPeaks:
Next, authorize AI Endurance to access your TrainingPeaks data and workouts:
That's it! From now on, AI Endurance will forward your training plan automatically into TrainingPeaks.
If you also connect your TrainingPeaks account with your Zwift account, TrainingPeaks will forward your AI Endurance workouts to Zwift. You can find today's workout in the workout folder under the TrainingPeaks dropdown:
TrainingPeaks syncs with Zwift every day to export your workout of the day, find more details here. You can still export your AI Endurance training plans manually to Zwift, but syncing through TrainingPeaks makes that process easier. In particular, if your training plan is often adapted, we recommend using TrainingPeaks for a fully automatic 'click and forget' export and synchronisation of your training plan.
TrainingPeaks connects to a whole ecosystem of apps. As a result, you can execute your AI Endurance workouts for many other devices which may not be directly integrated with AI Endurance. For example, see here for a list of TrainingPeaks integrations. If we have a direct integration you don't need to go though TrainingPeaks. For example, to export your workouts directly to Garmin Connect, you can follow these instructions.
If you adapt your training plan by changing your zones, moving a workout to a different day or requesting a new training plan altogether, all changes will be automatically synced with your TrainingPeaks account. Connect once and never worry about exporting your workouts again. AI Endurance continuously exports your workouts so your next week of workouts is always up to date in TrainingPeaks.
DFA alpha 1 is a heart rate variability (HRV) metric that allows tracking of the aerobic and anaerobic threshold. We explain the breakthrough potential of this new metric and how you can track your DFA alpha 1 thresholds with the AI Endurance app, Garmin and Zwift.
There are different options on the market for optimized AI training plans that are based on applying machine learning to your individual data. In this post, we compare the different options and their features.
Power meters are costly and we often can't afford one on every bike we own. AI Endurance calculates cycling power from activities without a power meter using heart rate, cadence and DFA alpha 1. The results are generally more accurate than speed based estimates such as Strava's estimated power. All you need is a heart rate monitor and ideally a cadence sensor on your bike and AI Endurance will estimate your power for every ride.
DFA (detrended fluctuation analysis) alpha 1 is an HRV (heart rate variability) based aerobic and anaerobic threshold estimation method. It only requires a heart rate monitor that tracks HRV data. It has the potential to track your thresholds automatically without dedicated test workouts.
